The Contractor of the New Sister Devil

"Then I will declare Miss Walnut's defeat as a representative of the steady faction, so that's all right?"

Instead of Walnut, Just surrendered to the joking Adomiles.

"But by the rules..."

When Adomiles still had something to say--

"——Yes, I accept the surrender of the conservative.

The voice of Cardinal Madonis sounded in the fighting space... the fighting space was lifted at the same time, and the ring was restored to its original state.Saved Walnut's life, Jeste was relieved, but—

"But--even to save your companions, you still intervened in this duel before the outcome was determined.I can't turn a blind eye to such arrogant behavior that humiliates the noble spirit of the duel.

".................."

Amidst the echoing voices of the audience in the arena, Jeste couldn't argue with a word.

"It was not the girl named Noaka Walnut who fouled the rules—but just yourself.

Madonis said with a smile:

"So from my point of view, it is fairest to judge you for the fourth game in which you were automatically defeated due to a conservative foul... I wonder what you think?

"..................!"

Just bit her lip unwillingly.Even though he was full of dissatisfaction, his major violation is indeed a fact. Continued resistance will only make one's position worse. If it fails, it will put Walnut in a dangerous situation again.

"……I understand."

After Jeste accepted the punishment of losing without a fight, there was another tumult in the arena.

In a malicious cheer, Jeste picked up the walnut and stepped down the ring; after entering the passage to the lounge, he walked for a while and saw someone standing in front.

That was the fifth participant after Jest-Yuuki.Seeing her appear, Jeste lowered her eyes and said:

"I'm sorry...I can't help it."

Including Jest's undefeated, the steady faction has lost three straight.Perhaps, you should first seek the opinions of other companions such as Youxi or Mio before doing it.Although this battle took the form of a one-on-one duel, it was essentially a decisive battle between the two major forces in the devil world.Even if everyone agrees to do their best to go back together safely, but duel is always a matter of death, Walnut must have this consciousness in his heart.

——However, Jeste couldn't help it.

Walnut, who couldn't bear to be a sister, died in vain.

"...How about walnuts?"

Hearing Tashi asked softly, Jeste held the walnut in her arms in front of her.The walnut was scarred, but his breathing was still steady.

"She's okay... at least her life is not in danger."

"...Thank you for saving Walnut."

"You're welcome..."

When Jeste replied briefly to Yuuki, who looked slightly relaxed--

Something fell out of Walnut's hand, knocking on the slate floor and rolling aside.

Take a closer look, it is the uniform button of Shengzaka Academy worn by Blade.

...Why Miss Walnut...

Will there be such a thing?...In front of Jeste who had such a question, the button stopped moving after drawing a circle.Yuxi squatted down instead of Jeste, who was holding the walnut in both hands, and reached out to pick it up—unexpectedly, the buttons couldn't maintain the shape and scattered into fine powder without touching it.

"——————"

Seeing this picture—Jest understood everything immediately.It is clear why Walnut's performance is bleak, and what tricks the Cardinal Admiral's minions used against her.

"rat……!"

Jeste turned around gritted her teeth with irrepressible anger...turning to the ring, striding along the same path to correct Adomiles' nasty behavior-but could not get out.Jeste didn't stop voluntarily.A hand gently pressed her right shoulder, as if trying to hold her.Generally speaking-her anger will never be quenched by this level of restraint, it is easy to get rid of it.

But-Jeste can't do it.Because of the breath of the girl who was standing next to her, placing her hand gently on her right shoulder, it was so cold that she almost froze her.

——My beloved sister, who attached great importance to the companions of Blade and Jeste, was actually used and trampled to pieces.

The unforgivable anger instantly transformed into a cold murderous intent like absolute zero.

"...Walnut, please."

Yuuki stared at the other side of the dark passage-the arena of the decisive battle, and after saying this lightly, she left Jeste holding the walnut and moved forward slowly.

Located at the highest point of the ancient arena, in a special viewing room overlooking the arena.

Adomiles came here and reported that he had lived up to the expectations of the victory; each of the Cardinals smiled at him and cheered.

"Oh, it's so beautiful to win... It's the number one confidant of His Excellency Madonis."

"That's right. Not only won the victory, but also fouled and defeated the opponent in the next game according to the plan, and got a hand."

Everyone praised his subordinate Adomiles in front of his master Madonis.

"It is a great honor for Adomiles to be loved by all the adults. Since that girl will definitely lose, I just have to think about it and find a way to win happily for all the adults."

The praised Adomiles smiled and said:

"Take advantage of the absence of Xun Dongcheng's son and say that we took him as a hostage. She was scared to be obedient and obedient. It's so cute."

in fact--

"In order to induce the other party to intervene in the foul, and let them lose without a fight, I feel sorry for not being able to kill the girl...Since the victory is ours in the end, I really want to personally kill the desperate girl."

When Adomiles said this to the other members of the Cardinal, he walked slowly to his master.

"—Good job, Adomiles."

After being admired by Madonis who smiled and wrinkled his face, Adomiles bowed respectfully.

Madonis was ecstatically satisfied for this subordinate, and thought--

... After these four battles, there were three wins and one defeat.

Two of the wins were handled by the Cardinals-and they were all done by Madonis' subordinate Adomiles. This credit will undoubtedly go to Madonis alone and will not be summed up by the term "Cardinals".

Leohart's subordinates lost a game, which is also a happy miscalculation.If it weren't for the Cardinal's two wins, they would only be drew with the conservative; this fact will make Leohart's cohesion weaker and let the public re-understand the importance of the Cardinal.At this time--

"Great... so you can keep "that thing" as planned."

What other cardinals said made Madonis even more satisfied.
